[mythtv-users] SVN lossless MPEG2 transcode for HD process question

I tried using this for my first time, and since I've never done transcoding I 
think I may be confused...

First, I don't have any transcode jobs setup, so I ran mythtranscode manually. 
Here's what I did...

Used edit mode to place two cutpoints (I just wanted to save one interview 
segment from a talk show). When I play back the recording it honors the 
cutpoints, so I ran:
mythtranscode -m -i /MythTV/tv/1807_20060105020500.mpg -l --showprogress

and in the end I got 

-rw-r--r--  1 mythtv mythtv 7.2G Jan  5 03:04 1807_20060105020500.mpg
-rw-r--r--  1 root   root   7.1G Jan  5 11:39 1807_20060105020500.mpg.tmp

so I'm hoping I'm just doing something wrong... but I don't know what...

thanks for the help!
